I sometimes try to tell myself,
That it doesn't matter what you've done,
If you hold dear the things you love,
Keep them close to warm yourself
Now I've sat where the bodies fell,
I saw the church, but I didn't hear the bells,
When you're looking up, for a parachute,
Don't be afraid if you feel rain
In Sainte-Mere Eglise,
Time will heal.
In Sainte-Mere Eglise,
It's about what you do,
And what you say,
Today
When I'm down, and screwing up everything,
I take a walk, and think of the things I love,
I don't care if you're atheist, or if you pray every day, to a God above,
There's a world out there we need to share,
Do your bit, and show you care
In Sainte-Mere Eglise,
Time will heal.
In Sainte-Mere Eglise,
Time will heal,
In Sainte-Mere Eglise,
It's about what you do,
And what you say,
Today
I like to think I'm a pacifist,
But I remember what happened yesterday,
The sun doesn't judge what we've done before,
There's hope for us all,
In Sainte-Mere Eglise.

Save your words,
I'm a lost cause, and I'll never start to change,
In the streets, I hear sounds,
I hear voices, but I'll never meet their gaze,
Words cut like scissors,
Eyes like broken mirrors in the dirt
Some time ago, I was younger,
And I never even cared
In time,
I hope,
That like sirens,
We'll lead them astray
Save your looks,
I'm a lost cause, and I'll never start to change,
In the dark, I hear sounds,
I hear voices, but I'll never see the change,
I heard the laughter,
But it was canned, for ten years after the joke,
Forcing a smile, together,
We'll try and change the world,
In time,
I hope,
That like sirens,
We'll lead them astray

If the stars could make a face,
Making canvas of the sky,
I'd connect the dots, and draw the lines,
And grab you
Not a hair that's out of place,
Nor a movement lacking grace,
If I pulled you from the stars,
You'd be wrong to turn me away
So come on, come on, come on,
I need your help in singing a song,
So come on, come on, come on,
I need hearts to keep beating along
So now that I no you're real,
I need to see if I can still feel,
So I hold your hand and smell your hair,
And breathe you
Times may not go,
Always as we want them to,
But turn that frown, upside down,
'Cause I need you

Hold my hand,
In the cold,
Feeling will run deep,
When you're gone,
When you're gone,
So why must I fall to pieces,
Everytime you look at me?
Eyes still so full of affection,
That would sparkle if there were no light,
Why can't you voice,
The feelings I know you still feel,
Don't keep it all,
On the inside
I'll miss your kiss,
And the taste,
And the whispers in my ear,
Saying 'everything will be fine'
So why must I fall to pieces,
Everytime you look at me,
Eyes still so full of affection,
That would sparkle if there were no light,
Why can't you voice,
The feelings I know you still feel,
Don't keep it all,
On the inside
Which way will you go?
What will you say?
Guess we'll never know
So why can't you voice,
The feelings I know you still feel,
Don't keep it all,
On the inside

All this time,
That we have,
All this space,
That we waste,
Before I met you,
These walls were painted black,
It's been so long now,
I've forgotten how to look back,
All this time that we've been working hard,
You've been saving our love away in a jar,
Yesterday I saw a boy on a bike,
Get hit by a car and lose his life,
Let's not waste our time
All these things,
Left unsaid,
All these thoughts,
Gone to waste,
We could be living in a high-rise,
On our own,
But we'd need somewhere bigger,
When the kids were fully-grown,
All this time that we've been working hard,
We've been saving our lives away in a jar,
Yesterday I saw a look in your eye,
It said take me away to show me a night on the town,
Let's not waste our time,
For all that we know,
This could be our time,
So, let's not let it go,
We'll make it count
Yesterday I saw a boy on a bike,
Followed by his dad and full of life,
Let's not waste our time.
